This study aims to analyze students’ perceptions about the use of blended learning models in understanding mathematics. As blended learning becomes more commonplace, it is important to assess whether students like or dislike the application of blended learning in their studies. The total research subjects were 319 secondary students from 6 different schools in Jakarta. Furthermore, this study used a survey method and the data were analyzed using the Rasch Model (WinSteps). The research instrument was a questionnaire consisting of 21 statements with several indicators, including the delivery of material, understanding of mathematical concepts, easy access, and assignments. Based on the wright maps table on WinSteps, the percentage of male students who like the Blended Learning model in learning mathematics is more than female students. Meanwhile, when viewed in terms of grade, 7th and 8th grade students like the application of blended learning models the most. In addition, this study reveals that students most dislike when it is difficult to access assignments online during the application of blended learning by teachers in learning mathematics. Therefore, to solve mathematical problems, students prefer to have a face-to-face interaction with the teachers to ask if there is something that is not understood yet.

Understanding mathematical concepts are the first key in understanding the material because there is a link between one concept with another concept. The implementation of learning is expected to link mathematical concepts in everyday life. Internal and external factors of students are very influential in mathematics learning, one of them is mathematics anxiety. Mathematics anxiety that is processed by students well can make these students enthusiastic to learn mathematics, but conversely, if students are not able to process mathematics anxiety properly it will negatively affect mathematics learning outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine how much influence mathematics anxiety has on understanding mathematical concepts. This research is a descriptive quantitative research.  The method used in this study is a survey method using questionnaires and questions in collecting data. The results of this study indicate that mathematics anxiety harms understanding mathematical concepts, with low chorea values. It can be interpreted that in this case, the respondent has not been able to process mathematics anxiety into motivation to continue learning to understand mathematical concepts. So anxiety has a significant effect on understanding mathematical concepts. From this research it is hoped that it can be used as a teacher's reference in carrying out mathematics learning, teachers can help reduce student anxiety by using learning models that are fun and effective, and teachers can provide motivation to students who experience mathematics anxiety.

Problem-solving is an important competency that must be owned by students. Problem-solving skills can facilitate students in understanding, connecting, and using mathematical concepts. Even so, mistakes in solving mathematical problems are still made by students. One reason is the lack of habituation of problem-solving in learning mathematics. Teachers who have good problem-solving skills will find it easier to teach and do an activity about problem-solving in learning mathematics. The purpose of this study is to describe the problem-solving ability of primary school teachers based on Polya’s method. This research method is descriptive-qualitative. The research subjects were primary mathematics teachers who taught in Mataram City, Indonesia. Each research subject solved three mathematical problems correctly and the problem-solving process will be analyzed based on Polya's method. The results obtained are teachers from city and suburb schools doing three indicators, namely identifying information on the problem, carrying out the procedure according to plan, and doing calculations correctly. Indicators of problem-solving that are not done are writing problem questions, making mathematical models, and writing final conclusions.Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah Guru Sekolah Dasar Berdasarkan Metode Polya di Kota MataramAbstrakPemecahan masalah adalah salah satu kompetensi yang cukup penting. Kemampuan pemecahan masalah dapat memudahkan siswa dalam memahami, menghubungkan, dan menggunakan konsep-konsep matematika.
